Objection contained in a letter from the Permanent Representative of Denmark, dated 10 April 1991, registered at the Secretariat General on 11 April 1991 - Or. Engl.
I hereby, on behalf of the Danish authorities, have the honour to notify a partial objection in respect of the inclusion of lower plants (Bryophytes) in Appendix I. The objection is partial in the sense that it only concerns the obligations in Article 5, and it does not concern obligations according to other Articles of the Convention that follow from the amendment. In particular, it does not concern Article 4, paragraph 1.
Denmark thus has no objections to ensure the habitats of the Bryophytes with Danish occurence included in connection with the amendment of Appendix I, but it does not intend to carry out legislative species protection of these plants.
The objection applies to all Bryophyte species in Appendix I occuring in Denmark. According to present knowledge this includes the following 5 species from the amended list:
Buxbaumia viridis, Dichelyma capillaceum, Drepanocladus vernicosus, Meesia longiseta, Orthotrichum rogeri.
For the sake of good order I add that Denmark is not notifying any objections in connection with the amendments concerning higher plants (Ferns and Flowering plants) to Appendix I of the Convention.
